I'd say YOU are the smart one. The phone is rather dumb.

You probably can for as little a $10, just to get started.
When I was gifted a broken Blackberry (it would nolonger
charge properly to the previous owner's liking), I used it
primarily as a camera, FM radio, music player, and the
occassional wi-fi linkup - for 2 years. I was not moved to
bother ever owning a cellphone for making calls.
But I eventually opted to try activating it when my previous
Roger's Stick device was simply not performing well with many
of the sites that I replied on. I purchased a $10 activation
card with Luckymobile.ca The idea was to see if I could
obtain good mobile data service at home to replace the Roger's
Stick solution. And if would work well, then I would move to
Luckymobile. If not, then it was just a $10 (+1 month of data
usage) experiment. I decided to stay. I have a modest 5GB/mo
plan. Phone calls are unlimited - Canada wide, but I have
never used it except to call my shop to check messages on my
answering machine.
So, for as little as $10 (plus atleast one month of service,
$15), you could register a Telegram account to activate the
program on your desktop, and never need the phonenumber tied
to your account again.

It appears that they are offering the same card for 50% off
right now. Total cost, $20.
But I digress from the topic of this echo.
